The use of Telemedicine in telecardiology
The telemedicine is a rapidly growing application in the clinical medical industry wherein the medical information is easily transferred through the internet or through phone and even through other networks to provide better consulting with the help of the telecardiology technology. This comes as an excellent technology combination when working in extreme remote medical procedures or during remote examinations. The procedure in telemedicine can be as simple as s2 health experts discussing over a particular case through the telephone or can even be a complex procedure where they would use video conferencing equipments or satellite technology to establish a real time consultation I between the two medical specialists and from two different locations. When it comes to telemedicine in telecardiology it normally refers to the sage of information technologies and communication for delivering clinical care.

( 2 Votes )Electrocardiography or ECG can be easily transmitted with the help of wireless and telephone. This unique process was first done in the year 1958 by Barr who transmitted ECG tracings to nearly 40,000 feet. This process is also called as telecardiology. The teletransmission of ECG can be done using several indigenous methods. However one of the oldest telecardiology systems or the teletransmission of ECG to be recorded had been established in the Gwalior city of India in the year 1975 at the GR Medical College. It system was managed by Dr. S. Makhija, Dr. Ajai Shanker and P.K. Mantri who found out about this system with the help of different techniques for the first time.

Understanding teleradiology
The method involved in sending radiologic images from a fixed source to another with the help of digital or computer based transmissions is called as teleradiology. This process is basically conducted on a standard telephone line or through wide area network and sometimes even through LAN or local area network. In the process of teleradiology the images can be easily sent to another source or hospital throughout the world. The images can be easily captures using a video capture board or frame grabber which can be connected directly to a composite video signal of either the console or the image processor. The images can also be captured digitally just by connecting them directly from modality to the workstation through networks like Ethernet. However another least expensive method in acquiring digital data is by using DICOM file transfer.
